01.01.2022 National Shelter has had a change of staff - with Communications Officer Alva leaving due to study and work commitments. It's been great working with Alva as she has helped lift the quality of our Enews and broadened our subscription list. She didn't leave us in the lurch, suggesting she could be replaced by her sister Sorcha, formerly a Stakeholder Engagement Officer at Shelter SA. Sorcha is currently completing a Master of Communication and working in fundraising and marketing for a South Australian nonprofit. We are glad to have Sorcha join us in a revised role which will also include some policy tasks given her history at Shelter SA. Welcome Sorcha!
